Welcome to this page!On this page, you will find experiments using everyday objects (well, for most of theexperiments!). These experiments will be based on potential, stored, kinetic energyand then how is the kinetic energy used with different objects.
Some terms that will be used over the term:*Potential energy - energy that is stored and has the potential to do something when it is released
*Kinetic energy- is how energy is used to move an object (how is the object moving?)
*Stored energy- is the same as potential energy - it is stored up, growing, or waiting to be used
*hypothesis- your logical and calculated guess!

How can we get potential to kinetic energy?*Click on any of the pictures to see how energy is made (you will be taken to anotherpage for each picture and you may have experiments to do on those pages).
